Personally, it does nothing for me, and I hope we're now at the tail end of the market's fascination with cartoony children with big eyes, bearing twee nonsense, wall-friendly messages.
But collecting art is not about what I hate, it's about what YOU love and what speaks to you.

Why does every print release from Avant Arte sound like a Marks & Spencer’s advert (with their pretentious descriptions)? |

Just my opinion in answer to your questions jimmy81, but these not for me. I hate to say this, but really don't understand the message or the appeal? I definitely wouldn't buy them, £1400 seems pretty expensive for them?

Now those were expensive. |

Based on these comments, I expect to see no AA hate when everyone isn’t able to purchase. With an edition size of 250 I imagine the AA hate might be directed toward them being too easy to get ahold of. |

Javier Calleja 🇪🇸 Málaga, Spain • Drawings • Sculture, by Newar on Apr 10, 2024 9:43:58 GMT 1, Javier was Yoshitomo apprentice.
After it's all about taste it's a typical Javier style work and with his fan base i'm sure it's gonna sold out (a small edition at that price point would have been nicer  )
Looks like the latest piece going to be showed with Almine Rech

I won’t share the code, so please don’t ask (and I’m not buying either). 😀

Huge edition numbers, huge release numbers, cost only going one way for resell value and people are still climbing walls.
Utter madnes! Do some bloody research and buy a good emerging artist why you think may have a career!

If buying these prints were the only way of being offered a Condo print, would you bite?
